Hmm...I guess you're right...Oh, wait, since you are OBVIOUSLY a well informed citizen of the USA, and a proud patriot, tell me what Bill Clinton did in the last half of his second term.And tell me what Bush Sr. did other than kick Iraq out of Kuwait.Tell me what JFK did other than setting up the Peace Corps and beating Kruschev in a pissing contest.

and if we are ever in a total war setting again... the marines are gonna be begging for the armys help in battle... because the marines and Army's pirposes in battle are different

the marines are better suited for smaller operations because they bring everything they need with them

the army splits up their Logistics and Fighting forces.... but the Army is going to be the one who moves into an area and holds it... the marines are just gonna be the ones soaking up all the bullets in the initial assault....

Army and Marines are both part of a big fighting force.... no one force is any better or worse... as they are each equipped for different situations.... a Navy SEAL would wipe the floor with any other branch of the military's personell.... but that doesn't mean the NAVY is the best either....

Marines - small scale assault... short missions... need backup from army once logistics run out... or the marines have to pull out. Less vechicle support than army, tanks, infantry, helecopters, APC, Humvee

Navy- Naval and air warfare... big missiles... nukes... only use on land is SEAL teams... who are used for small covert ops missions. Boats, Submarines, Fix winged and movable winged planes, limited helecopter, Sailors recieve some training with guns... but mainly to fend off a boarding party

Airforce - work with naval carriers to get to battle... usually bomb.... hardly any dogfighting since WWII. Airplanes, helecopters.... Airforce infantry are also referred to as dead
